The dish consists of either fresh or fermented rice, kneaded with boiled fish (usually caught from the [[Inle Lake]], such as [[Rohu|nga gyin]]), fresh [[tomato]] paste, mashed boiled [[potatoes]] and [[garlic]] garnish. Highland Shan rice, similar to Japanese rice, is used alongside the creamier Shan potatoes, giving the dish a very rich texture. |
